What is SYN
Named for the Greek word “syn,” meaning “together,” Syn Dupont is built around the idea that every great moment starts with a shared experience. More than just a bar or restaurant, it is a dependable, welcoming space where the staff knows your name and the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between casual comfort and attentive service. Syn Dupont is where connection happens over food, drinks and the spirit of Dupont Circle.
